I have ordered a new Bernina 570 and really enjoy your videos.. I have had a 160 for over 20 years and can’t wait for my new machine. At 84 years old I am trying to learn this machine. Thanks you are great.
Cody & Pet thank you so much for your videos. I found you be accident and I’m so glad I did, I recently purchased a 770 QE and it’s my first Bernina you have taken the fright of braking it out of me. I look at your videos and sit my machine follow you and wallah I’m learning something new. Thank you again.
Yes there are so many wonderful feet BERNINA has. But it’s easy to forget why you bought them and how they work and all of the wonderful thinks you can do with them ☺️
Oh man I adore the triple stitch. 💗Have made a handful of mid-weight denim pants without #8 and now I can see how it will really aid me. Also a good topstitch thread is key. Continue to ponder the flat felled foot. Use a hump jumper with most projects. Finally got the buttonhole aid and it’s a game changer. Thank you for all you do for all of us out here at #teambernina. ❤️🌵🇺🇸
Yes the machines have so many wonderful stitches and feet to play with. There just isn't enjoy hours in the day to play with them all. There are so many wonderful threads out there I wish I could have them all to play with. OHH yes the buttonhole aid is a Game Changer for sure. I am so happy to have followers that appreciate all of the videos that i spend a lot of time working on, I do it for people just like you. Thank You for all of your wonderful comments they keep me going. :)
@@sewingwithcodyandpete8651 is a pleasure to follow your videos, you have a really calm and positive voice :o). I love your special videos on the special foot by Bernina
Excellent video! I just bought this foot, waiting for it to arrive! I can't thank you enough for these videos, very informative! You have a lovely way of teaching! If you ever provide links I will definitely use them 😊...
The back of #8 foot is also designed to support a size 14 or 16 needle as it goes into heavy fabric at to prevent the needle from deflecting and hitting the throat plate and breaking. A great foot for working with heavy fabrics.
When using the #8 foot, what’s the best way to hem the jeans? Right side facing out OR inside facing out? Does it really matter? Is it okay if the “bobbin thread” is the thread that’s showing? It seems like to me that if the hem is sewn with the right side facing out that it would be hard to see the folded edge that’s inside. Any reply is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much 😊!!!
You are right it is easier to see the hem from the wrong (inside) side. I do this with my shirts so I sew from the wrong/inside. One thing is especially if you are using jeans/denim thread (thicker thread) the bobbin the back stitch doesn't always look as good. Soooo what I like to do in the case when my bobbin thread/stitch is going to be the stitch seen I like to increase my top thread tension so this makes your back stitch look prettier. :)
@@sewingwithcodyandpete8651 how do you increase the tension on a Bernina 475QE? I think I know what you mean. If the tension is increased then the thread is pulled tighter....???
@@kvblum2007 exactly so with the tension being tighter being pulled to the "top" its actually the inside of your hem so that side of the stitch won't look as pretty but the bobbin side will have beautiful defined stitches. So to change the tension on your 475 on your touch screen the icon on the very top left corner you will see a number like (4.0) click that button and then you can increase the number for a tighter tension or a lower number for a looser number on the TOP tension. You will want to inc the tension. If it is at say 4.0 you will only really need to adjust to about a 4.5 or 5.0 usually doesn't take much. :)
Clear and concise tutorial….thank you Cody! ❤
Fabulous video and explanation of the #8 and compensating tool. Clear, concise and to the point! Thanks so much.

Thank you for this. I have invested a lot of money on these feet over the years, but have forgotten how to use many of them.

Absolutely, excellent extra info on the #8 Foot Thank you. :)
Thank you! great video
Fantastic!!!thank you!!
Awesome!
Thank You :)
I would like to see the back of the fabric.
Should the presser foot setting on the screen be set to the #8 foot? It doesn’t change when I go into the settings menu to try and change it.
When using the #8 foot, what’s the best way to hem the jeans? Right side facing out OR inside facing out?
Does it really matter? Is it okay if the “bobbin thread” is the thread that’s showing?
It seems like to me that if the hem is sewn with the right side facing out that it would be hard to see the folded edge that’s inside.
Any reply is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much 😊!!!
